Australian employment fell by 1% over the month to Aug. 8, data showed on Tuesday, with job prospects particularly hard hit in the southeastern state of Victoria as it grapples with a fresh wave of coronavirus infections.

Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed payroll jobs for the period fell 2.8% in Victoria, which has suffered the biggest decline in employment since mid-March when Australia recorded its 100th coronavirus case. Economists said Tuesday’s numbers are a cause for concern as they showed jobs growth had stalled after a sharp rebound in recent months.

“Policymakers will need to be proactive in the coming months and there should be concern that rates of JobSeeker and JobKeeper are being reduced when unemployment remains so high.”

That's what happens when an authoritarian government imposes an indefinite lockdown on its people. It's absolutely disgraceful what the Australian government has done. Resembles North Korea and China more than a commonwealth nation. Now is the time to get out. Freedom is dead.
